King Corn
horizontal line

A fascinating, in-depth, informative, and ultimately disturbing documentary in which filmmakers Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis rent 1 acre of land from farmer Chuck Pyatt in Greene, Ia., to plant 31,000 seeds of yellow dent no. 2 corn with the intent of following their government-subsidized harvest to market and during the process have candid and insightful interviews with farmers and scientists about the influences of the corn crop in America from cattle that are infected with acidosis due to a diet based on corn rather than grass and the far-reaching consequences on American consumers whose diet has changed dramatically over the last 30 years due to the ingestion of corn byproducts, such as high fructose corn syrup.
